Reception
Reception
Official UK PlayStation 2 Magazine rated Alpine Racer 3 three out of 10, commenting that it "can be fun" but "lacks the character" of rival ski games, criticising its "limited tricks, bland courses" and the "easily forgettable characters".[2] JeuxVideo.com rated the game six out of 10, being critical to the low number of characters and tracks, stating that it is not as good as the SSX series.[8] German magazine MANiAC gave a score of 56 out of 100, saying that is offers far too little amount of challenge.[9]
The game was not published in North America, with IGN reporting this was due to the "graphics, outdated mechanics, and lack of maneuvers".[10]
